4 years ago…
… my little Monster was just about 2 months old. Just a tiny little thing. I was learning how to be Mommy and spent my days snuggling swaddling and trying to remember what 8 hours of sleep felt like. A baby changes everything… in an exhaustingly wonderful my-life-is-chaotically-perfect kinda way!!!
Well guess what? I wasn’t the only one with a new baby! Tiffany was nurturing one too!!
Okay, hers wasn’t living, breathing, pooping and crying at 4AM but it was her baby. One she dreamed of. One she decided to create. One she made and loved from day one. One she has nurtured ever since. She had her baby and named it… Appletini.
I have watched Appletini grow since day one. I’m kind of like her favorite Aunt. I help Tiffany with her whenever I can. I am so proud of the successful young thing she is and cheer her on every step of the way. I love watching Appletini grow and bloom into the beautiful success she is becoming.
But like they say… a child is NOTHING without their mother. And Tiffany is a GREAT MOTHER!!!
She puts everything into Appletini. She NEVER stops. NO, seriously… Like the Energizer Bunny times 2. I absolutely respect her and admire her hard work, dedication and endless love she has for her business baby.
When Appletini was born, like any mother, Tiffany was learning the ropes. How to manage her baby, how to nurture her, how to make her baby the best and to give it all the love and knowledge possible. And since day one Tiffany hasn’t slowed down. And you can see the amazing growth as a mother in her work.
Tiffany photographed my sweet little Monster when she was born 4 years ago and I was thrilled with the images. Such a gorgeous newborn session. She did so much better than I could have ever done and I cherish those beautiful pictures. I am thankful I have them and blessed that Monster’s Aunt Tiff loves being behind the camera! With that said, now when I look at those photos, as much as I adore them I can tell they are the work of a young photographer, or mother, if you will! 🙂
Compared to Bug’s newborn shoot this year, Monster’s shoot doesn’t quite rank up there with it. And it shouldn’t!!! I love that you can see the difference in my girl’s baby photographs. It shows how much Appletini has grown. How much work Tiffany has put into her craft.
Between the birth of my girls Tiffany has had 4 years to grow as a photographer. To learn her camera. To work with lighting. To perfect her posing and styling. To improve her editing skills. To refine her techniques. She is always educating herself and it shows in her work.
The difference is pretty amazing isn’t it?
Let’s play a game. See if you can tell which image is which…
Pretty obvious, right? The left image is Tiff’s most recent work. The right, 4 years ago.
** This pose is called “Super Baby” by the way! 🙂
Okay, how about these two …
While I love them both, you can tell the left image is edited and taken most recently.
As you can see, Tiffany has been busy becoming a professional! She is an extremely talented Photographer who not only takes gorgeous images but knows how to edit and create lovely photographic art. It has taken her some time but she has nurtured, loved, and played with her baby every chance she gets and the proof is obvious. Once you look at her beautifully polished images you can tell she has really grown as a photographer Mother!
Before I go, just a couple more gorgeous images of my little beauties….
